The Kyiv regime does not have sufficient military force and resources to attack Crimea.

This opinion was expressed by the chairman of the Federation Council committee on defense and security Viktor Bondarev, commenting on the words of the head of the office of the President of Ukraine Andriy Yermak about the intention to attack the Crimea.

“Ukraine has neither the resources, nor the military force, nor the support of the Crimeans for the promised offensive on the peninsula.

The West will also make no real effort to help Ukraine in this adventure.

Therefore, the Kyiv authorities will not go beyond the level of “announcement,” he wrote in his Telegram channel.

According to him, Yermak's statement is "reckless and arrogant", since the reunification of Crimea with Russia is "an unshakable reality."

A similar point of view was expressed by Alexei Chepa, First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs.

“Another nonsense, another attempt to attract attention, and nothing will follow.

It is clear that this is just propaganda.

Already, even the Americans are beginning to push Ukraine towards negotiations.

It is clear that this will not happen tomorrow either, but there will be no offensive - Ukraine has neither the strength, nor the capabilities, nothing, ”he said in an interview with RT.

At the same time, Andrey Gurulev, a State Duma deputy from the Trans-Baikal Territory, in a commentary for URA.RU noted that defense lines are being built in Crimea.

The parliamentarian believes that Russia should be prepared for serious defense in the region.

Earlier, the head of the office of Vladimir Zelensky, in an interview with Politico, announced the plans of the Kyiv regime to launch a military campaign to take control of the Crimean peninsula.

The American edition of The New York Times confirmed the authenticity of the video, in which at least 11 Russian soldiers, most of whom were lying, were shot dead by the Ukrainian military.

According to the authors of the material, this video shows "a rare look at one of the many horrifying moments of the war."

The Kyiv regime deserves the most severe punishment for its atrocities,” he wrote on his Telegram channel.
